Default Zex or Nitrous kit

Anyone running one? I have recently noticed quite a few is-f guys running Nitrous/Zex kits. Wanted to know if anyone has experimented with this on their 3G? I know nothing about nitrous, but it seems as if power adders for the 3G are very minimal. Im already cashed out with just a tanabe exhaust, midpipss and intake

I'd say no go, what version 3GS do you have? Depending on that, you have to also consider the instantaneous TQ and HP values that just shoot up. I don't think they would compliment our O.E. parts very well, as it is built for economical reasons (unfortunately). the IS-F is built for performance, so their parts are quite a bit more bulletproof than our 3GS's.

IF you can source me up a bit more information about the engine's components and rear differential settings, along with transmission codes and stuff, as much information on these parts (including engine block, piston information and whatnot) I might be able to toss it to a friend and see if it IS capable of doing a nice little nitrous kit... maybe 50-shot for kicks and giggles lol. I know for sure the 3UZ is not very forgiving (the rods and possibly the crankshaft bearings) when you add a lot more power mods. PM me the info if you find anything and i'll let you know!
